Sulochrin oxidase ((+)-bisdechlorogeodin-forming)

In enzymology, a sulochrin oxidase [(+)-bisdechlorogeodin-forming] (EC 1.21.3.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

2 sulochrin + O₂ $\rightleftharpoons$ 2 (+)-bisdechlorogeodin + 2 H₂O

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are sulochrin and O₂, whereas its two products are (+)-bisdechlorogeodin and H₂O.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on X-H and Y-H to form an X-Y bond with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is sulochrin:oxygen oxidoreductase (cyclizing, (+)-specific). This enzyme is also called sulochrin oxidase.
